It’s up to the Guardians to find, protect and ultimately destroy the Cosmic Seed in order to keep it out of the hands of those who would abuse its power, from galactic big boss Thanos, to the conniving brothers the Collector and the Grandmaster, to a resurrected Ronan, to the ultimate trickster, Loki, in order to save the universe."

Written and directed by James Gunn, the first film earned over $770 million at the worldwide box-office to emerge as the most successful debut film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
